If your game has been rated 1 cup, please don't be offended! It's common
for your first game release to get a 1-cup rating, due to the game having
a lack of polish and flair -- which is understandable, because you're just
getting started!

Please understand that the main purpose of the ratings is to help potential
game players find high quality, bug-free games to play. You've probably learnt
a lot about AGS as a result of making your first game -- so why not use that
knowledge to start afresh, and do even better with your next game!

About this game

What starts off as a close encounter becomes much more as Eric must battle against an evil insect, gain knowledge from a mysterious snowman, and transcend time and space itself in order to save the girl of his dreams.

Eric the Anteater features three different endings, beautiful pre-rendered graphics, and unique puzzles, all seamlessly woven into a story with memorable characters and devious villains.

This is a really good game. The screenshots don't really do the game justice. It's easy to be put off by the experimental 3D pre-rendered backgrounds, but bear in mind there are LOTS of them (this is quite a large game) and they all work together to create a really off-beat, surreal adventure. It's also a very funny game, with some brilliant, subtle humour.

I'm glad I 'lucky dipped' this game. I really recommend it to anyone reading this who hasn't played it yet. Whoever gave it only 2 cups probably judged it on about 5 minutes worth of play. Sure there is a lot of room for polish, but it's clear a lot of effort went into Eric The Anteater.

And I didn't even mention the FMV sequences. Great touch that most AGS games avoid.
